A student is investigating the affect of different salts on melting points. Four patches of ice of equal size are roped off and

a different
type of salt is poured on each one receives table salt (NaCl), one receives Calcium Chloride (CaCl2), one receives Potassium
Carbonate (KCO3) and the fourth receives Inert sand instead. Each patch receives an equal amount of salt or sand. The student
measures the volume of ice remaining and subtracts it from the original volume of ice to see how much melted away. What is the
dependent variable?
•
A. The type of salt applied to the ice.
B. The amount of lee that melted.
C. The ice that received sand.
D. The size of the Ice patches

Answer:

B. The amount of lee that melted.

Explanation:

The dependent variable is more of what results from an action during an experiment. It is actually what is being tested for. In the experiment, the scientist seeks to understand the effect of salts on melting point of ice. He selects the different salts which can cause a ice to melt (independent variables) then he sets up to find out the effect of the salt on the ice.

He cannot control how much ice will melt. The properties of the salts would determine the extent and rate of the dissolution of the ice pack. This is the dependent variable which relies on the nature of the salt.

Science fusion grade 7 lesson 1 review

4) The simplest type of response is a direct one-to-one stimulus-response reaction. A change in the environment is the stimulus; the reaction of the organism to it is the response. In single-celled organisms, the response is the result of a property of the cell fluid called irritability.

5) During meiosis, the cells needed for sexual reproduction divide to produce new cells called gametes. Gametes contain half as many chromosomes as the other cells in the organism, and each gamete is genetically unique because the DNA of the parent cell is shuffled before the cell divides.

6)Producers can make their own food by capturing the sun's energy, but consumers and decomposes can't. Consumers need to eat other organisms to obtain energy. Decomposes are like the recycles of nature. They obtain energy for their own needs while returning simple molecules to the environment.

7)The birds are growing up into a larger bird.

8) Cells manage a wide range of functions in their tiny package growing, moving, housekeeping, and so on and most of those functions require energy. But how do cells get this energy in the first place? And how do they use it in the most efficient manner possible?

9)Aside from the fact that fish,and trees can be aged in similar ways (by counting annual growth rings), new research shows that all three also respond to climate change in similar ways.


10)No we will not be able to survive cause there is no food or water and it is only oxygen of course you will be able to breathe but not eat or drink.

Which of the following is not a difference between Prokaryotic cells?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The age of the cell

Explanation:

Assuming your question was meant to be "Which of the following is NOT a difference between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells?", everything except the age is different.

Prokaryotes are simple cells that have no nucleus and are generally small. Eukaryotes are complex cells that have a nucleus, organelles, and are much bigger than prokaryotes.
